formariz 11,849 #1 Posted January 30, 2018 Received the sad news from overseas earlier today that Mom passed away earlier in the day. She was 83 and suffered from many ailments including Parkinson's. She had just come from the hospital a couple of days ago and her kidneys were failing. Spoke to her on the phone yesterday and she was in good spirits, better than usual. She passed away suddenly in my Father’s arms as he was helping her re position in bed. We have been scrambling the whole day to get a flight to go there and will be leaving tomorrow. Not a good thing for my wife who also suffers from Parkinson's , and stressful situations make it so much worse. Its neither easy nor ideal being so far apart from family, it’s a fragmented life too many times not knowing what to do. Parents over there, children and grandchildren over here. Such is the life of an immigrant who not only loves his family but also the country that he calls home. 3 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
